Twelve Weeks


I'm now 12 weeks 1 day pregnant. WOOHOO! I am loving every second of this! Today I had another ultrasound and Baby B has really grown the past few weeks! His/her arms and legs have really gotten long. We were able to see his (for the sake of not saying his/her constantly) little face. He was hyper today, bouncing around on his back. It was precious! After a while he pointed his legs up and started kicking them like he was doing the upside down bicycle or something. When the sonographer was getting the profile view his adorable little hand was on his forehead and we could see all of his fingers. We definitely have two arms, two legs, and all ten fingers and toes! She went through and showed us all of his teeny little body parts. She wouldn't give me a guess on gender yet, she said she has a reputation of accuracy to uphold and it's just too early. I'm still so captivated by every little thing about Baby B, as I'm sure I will be for the rest of my life now. 

I finally got to stop all of my estrogen pills, patches and progesterone yesterday. It's definitely blogworthy... trust me, it's a big step for us IVFers!

 ^^Here Baby B is facing toward us. The 2d ultrasound makes their face look a tad alien-like because it only shows bone structure, but that aside this was an amazing photo. It is of him kicking his little legs up in the air and bouncing all around. It was so cute in motion!^^
 ^^Here is a profile view of the baby. His facial features are a little hard to make out when he isn't in motion, but you can clearly see his fist propped up on his forehead. :)^^
^^This is a facial profile photo. (I'm taking their word for it) BUT the cool thing is that you can see his little fingers and thumb!^^

Doppler

Last night at 10 weeks 1 day I was able to locate our baby's heartbeat on my at home Doppler! I'm so excited that I can hear it anytime I want now! :) It's such peace of mind to know that everything is okay!
